1	Contextualization of Autonomous Spaceflight Operations for deep space planetary encounters Marcinkowski, Michal January 2018 (has links) This work concerns the research and application of data visualization techniques to depict ongoing activities in mankinds investigation of space as part of a larger open-source visualization- and science-outreach software known as OpenSpace. It involves the construction of a physically accurate virtual environment of our local star group and solar system so as to facilitate development of a robust and generalized solution capable of articulating mission-science to its viewers. The research part is focused on deploying data visualization methods suitable for contextualizing scientific findings towards the general public in a pedagogical manner, with the end goal to provide a fully operational New Horizons visualization on the day of encounter with Pluto for the first public broadcast of OpenSpace across the globe.

2	Dynamic Visualization of Space Weather Simulation Data / Dynamisk visualisering av rymdvädersimuleringsdata Sand, Victor January 2014 (has links) The work described in this thesis is part of the Open Space project, a collaboration between Linköping University, NASA and the American Museum of Natural History. The long-term goal of Open Space is a multi-purpose, open-source scientific visualization software. The thesis covers the research and implementation of a pipeline for preparing and rendering volumetric data. The developed pipeline consists of three stages: A data formatting stage which takes data from various sources and prepares it for the rest of the pipeline, a pre-processing stage which builds a tree structure of of the raw data, and finally an interactive rendering stage which draws a volume using ray-casting. The pipeline is a fully working proof-of-concept for future development of Open Space, and can be used as-is to render space weather data using a combination of suitable data structures and an efficient data transfer pipeline. Many concepts and ideas from this work can be utilized in the larger-scale software project. nasa space space weather scientific visualization visualization 3d graphics volumetric rendering c++ opencl opengl glsl amnh pipeline voxel voxels data structures tsp tree octree gpu gpgpu Media and Communication Technology Medieteknik
